Electromagnetically released spring-operated and permanent magnet brakes function on the fail-safe principle, i.e. brake torque is applied when electrically dead. These brakes are mainly used as holding devices on motors as well as wherever masses in motion need to be braked. Permanent-magnet brakes are particularly favoured for use in highly dynamic applications.

• Lenze brakes are powerful, reliable series manufactured products that have proven themselves in many applications.
• Braking force is applied by springs or a permanent-magnet field.
• Special friction surface processing ensures that rated torque is achieved after only a few cycles.
• Low-wear, asbestos-free friction surfaces guarantee long service life.
• Designed for 100% operation duration.
• Manufactured and tested to VDE 0580 standards.
• EMC measurements in typical field uses are available.
• Certification of our quality assurance system to ISO 9001 standards guarantees consistent high product quality.
